Donald Trump Says Ted Cruz 'Was a Canadian Citizen Up Until 15 Months Ago'
People ^ | 01/16/15 | Adam Carlson

Donald Trump, never one to mince words, is saying, "I told you so" on Saturday after news broke that a Texas lawyer was challenging Ted Cruz's eligibility to be president, on the grounds of his Canadian birth.

"Ted Cruz was born in Canada and was a Canadian citizen until 15 months ago. Lawsuits have just been filed with more to follow. I told you so," Trump tweeted Saturday morning.

That kicked off a string of seven Cruz-centric messages, including references to a New York Times report that Cruz, 45, forgot to disclose a Goldman Sachs loan while he was running for the Senate in 2012.

The Donald has seen the internal Iowa polling. They believe being born in the USA is important.

Trump is just trying to help Ted figure out where he comes from.

Ted changes nationalities as he changes positions.

Up to 15 months ago, Cruz could run for Prime Minister of Canada.

Anyone disagree?

Yep, many many people do not know Cruz was born in Canada.

Reuters put out a poll yesterday and it is devastating.

Hard to understand that up to 15 months ago, Cruz could have run
for Prime Minister of Canada or for U.S. President.
Kind of strange.

Dewhurst brought up his Canadian birth in senate race. Wonder why Ted did not get this cleared up back then.

Probably because he was thinking about running for Prime Minister
of Canada if the Texas Senate gig did not work out.

You know. Keeping his options open.

I can believe in that, Cruz should be a natural born citizen of at least one country. But two? Where is the blood loyalty?
